The Nuggets acquired Cam Johnson, and he comes from nowhere near Wisconsin. But with the money they saved, also got Hardaway, he’s good, but he’s no David Thompson. Bruce Brown was like more of a bonus, not to mention there’s Jonas Valancianas. Though he may play in Greece, the guy’s seven feet, and for Jokic good minutes he’d loan us. In OKC Nikola Topic should play, SGA and J Williams got paid. The Twolves re-signed Naz Reid just in time, but Alexander-Walker still done walk away. Anfernee Simons to Boston is fact, son. Jrue Holiday in Portland, reaction? The Lakers ac…

Just a metric ass ton of thunder lizards lumbering, sprinting, roaring, and causing mayhem. On its own, Jurassic Park is a masterpiece. The franchise it spawned…uh…isn’t. The Lost World: Jurassic Park is a mess.* Jurassic Park III is kinda fun and features ki…
